Poem
It is now too late for you to Straighten up and Fly right! You have failed to pass The test of time. It is too late to love your neighbor There is nothing left to do now But go back into the nothingness From whence you come. Day and night will no longer Be separated by the sun And the moon. The sun will no longer co-operate With your demand for light. The children are suffering My elders are unhappy- And do not - want to live Upon this planet again. All the worms have turned; Every punched has been pulled; You have failed to pass The test of time. No more shall you remember the promise of eternity. The moon is blood red The rivers are bleeding, Mother Earth’s blood. She has been savagely raped And abused. I will not restore knowledge that has been Lost or misused. You had the law and you did not use it. To those of you who have been so unkind an untoward my creations. You have failed to pass... The test of time throughout the ages. Fire rages I am speaking from my God-mind. I am fed up Finally. When the grid Breaks; And the earthquakes, "Too late to remedy the plunder." The senseless murders and destruction. No way to balance the metabolism No way to love your brothers Of different colors. Back to the void--Back to the nothingness, that you were before I imagined you. I am now rescinding my breath Revoking the stewardship. I will in one million years recreate a new species. They will decipher your written words; And they will create laws that ban the ways Of you new primitive men. My new species will not invent ways to ignore me, I will pattern them after the Amish; They will be good stewards of "Mother Earth". and...Will become at one with the With the universe and Its Laws. But as for you, your time is done; Back you go into the dark hole. And you will become undone. No-one on my new planet Will discover you. You have failed to pass The test of time; There’s no way now to keep time. Now there are no righteous left, to Make things Right. Blessed are the ones that have Already transcended Before times words were rescinded. And I who created you: Decided to end it. Message to the masses Concerning the madness...
